Ten days

There were ten days of rain. 

A chunk of ice was my chest. 

An unspeakable grief. 

It was not the lack of sun, 

the absence of light, 

but my own emptiness. 

He pressed each one 

of those thousands 

of raindrops over my eyes.

I´ve been cherished today 

by the sunlight after ten days...

Finally,

the rain has stopped inside of me

but my emptiness 

still and still rains.
